“The goal of this event is to support and challenge the community by presenting information
and experiences surrounding gender and gender issues,” said Mentley, who also is director
of Taggart and Pickell residence halls. “We want individuals to feel supported but
also maybe open up their minds to a perspective and experience they haven’t considered
before.”

The exhibit, on the first floor of Helen Ferris Hall, will include quotes, statistics,
photos, short videos and general information as well as “artifacts” that represent
the images of the stories and experiences being conveyed, she said.

Hours are 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 4 to 6 p.m. The exhibit is free and open to the public.

The Harmony Project Committee, which is made up of students and staff members, is
a departmental initiative responsible for campus-wide programming that addresses diversity
issues.
